Jan. 8th:

My level of fatigue is still the same so the only fitness/exercise I will be doing is walking.

But

Towards exercise activities I am counting cleaning! I am going to clear my closet, actually all clothes for everyone and do the monthly refining process! If we don't wear it, we can't keep it... So it's an exercise in utilitarianism

Day 8! My fitness plan/ activity is running and rowing! My best friend and I signed up for a few fun runs this summer. A bubble run, a foam glow run, a blacklight run, and a terrain race! So I'm working my C25K program in hopes of keeping up with her! The rowing is on a new machine my SO bought. We're hoping using it will help us for the summer and taking our kayak out. Maybe we will be better at it this year! We even got the pup a life vest so he can join. It's all slow and easy at my turtle pace, but at least I'm moving!

Day 8 Fitness plan/activity.

I've got some pretty lofty goals bodywise. I've been preparing my body for the future after surgery. My wife and I were doing a 100 a day bodyweight squat challenge but I stopped yesterday because my Bowflex adjustable dumbbells came in the mail yesterday! So I'm lifting those 3 days a week starting yesterday. Boy am I feeling the burn!

I only wish I could have seen the dude that delivered these heavy girls. I'd been like "Nice ass baby!" regardless of the nicety of said ass.

Anyway pics below are body goals! I going for a different kind big this time. It should serve me well for my future endeavors. Also pics of my equipment! Including my toes and a bag of pads! lol *Samuel L voice* Y'all MFs thought this was a game?

#8 Fitness Plan

Pretty simple. Walk 1 hour per day (all at once when possible).

Core exercise/strength training 3 days per week.

Done!

5. My fridge has been bare bones all week, no pic.

6. Week one update: I've lost 3 lbs and have stuck to my daily walking routine!

7. My motivation/inspiration: Right now, I just want my FUPA to shrink! Having a hard time thinking of any other motivating factors. Will read some of yours for inspiration.

8. Fitness plan/activity: I've been walking every day for a minimum of 20 mins (I've been exceeding it every day) and making sure I get up and take 250 steps every hour. I bought myself a FitBit on Saturday and I love it!
